People advancing shared values

IMG publications cover issues from a local, human-centered perspective. Model D recently reported on the evolution of the Springwells neighborhood in Southwest Detroit. The story explores how local nonprofits have helped shepherd redevelopment and community improvements while focused on meeting the needs of residents, including safety, opportunity, education, and trust. 

From Rural Innovation Exchange comes a story about the Michigan Folk School, which fosters community, creativity, and connection with nature by teaching traditional skills. Folk School founder Jason Gold has seen people find community across generations, backgrounds, and even politics, all while learning to tan hides or design furniture.
